Muskego City Library Board approves July minutes and financials amid budget questions
Summary
The Muskego City Library Board on Aug. 20 approved the minutes from July and the July 2024 financial reports after questions about a near‑final bathroom payment and stronger‑than‑expected room rental revenue; the director said finance has been notified of expected maintenance and salary overages.
The Muskego City Library Board voted on Aug. 20 to approve the minutes from its July 16 meeting and the July 2024 financial statements. The motion was made and seconded on the consent agenda and the board voted in favor; individual tallies and the mover/second are not specified in the transcript.
Board members asked several questions before the vote about line items in the packet. Director Britney said the final payment for the library bathroom remodel is close to complete and that a small punch list remains, estimating no more than about $4,000 left to pay if the project remains within budget. She also answered questions about meeting‑room rental income, saying the library charges $25 per hour for meeting rooms 1–3 and $50 per hour for room 4 (the larger room with a kitchen and projector) and that nonprofits and community groups that are open to the public are not charged.
Britney told the board she will continue to monitor the accounts and work with the finance department to offset any projected overages. She said finance has been notified that maintenance and salary lines may exceed appropriations because of recent, unplanned repairs and the timing of a salary study; no formal additional appropriation was requested at the meeting.
The chair called the question and the consent agenda passed. The board moved on to president and director reports.
